More than 200,000 NEXO PS Series speakers are already hard at work around the world in applications where compact, high-output, linear response loudspeakers are required. The latest PS R2 Series delivers as much as a 5dB higher sound pressure levels from a range comprising three scalable systems, all of which can be quickly and easily configured for main PA use, for use as floor monitors, or flown vertically or horizontally in installations or for use as side/rear fills.

The PS R2 Series offers the user a totally integrated loudspeaker solution, in which innovative transducer, waveguide and enclosure designs come together under the control of strategic equalisation from a comprehensive range of Controllers and Amplifiers to ensure extended bandwidth and sound pressure levels, along with a high degree of speaker protection.

NEXO PS R2 Series Systems

For more than 20 years, the NEXO PS Series has set the standard for compact, high-output loudspeakers.Now NEXO has raised the bar. The PS R2 Series builds upon the groundbreaking performance of its predecessor with even more power and bandwidth, greater versatility and better value in both installed sound and touring applications.

First we set the standard.Then we raised the bar.

Central to the advanced performance of the PS R2 Series is NEXO’s Asymmetrical Dispersion Constant Directivity horn design. Quick and easy for the user to rotate, it focusses more of the output of the loudspeaker on the audience (or performer when used as a monitor), greatly increasing the versatility of the system without compromising its performance in any given application.

The Asymmetrical AdvantageA satisfactory audience experience often necessitates a compromise between the wide, short throw coverage required by listeners closest to the stage, and the narrow, long throw coverage required by those at the back of the venue. Similarly, coverage from monitors must be wider when the performer is closer to the speaker, and narrower when further away. The asymmetrical horns used in all PS R2 Series speakers are engineered such that the vertical coverage is narrower above horn axis

than below. A few minutes is all it takes to remove the grille, unscrew the horn and rotate it to ensure optimum directivity in every application. When used as the main PA, PS R2 systems significantly reduce the amount of ambient, reverberant energy caused when loudspeakers misdirect their output towards walls and ceilings. And in monitor mode, more of the output can be focussed on the performer.

In conventional Front Of House configuration, a PS R2 Series loudspeaker yields 50° horizontal coverage at 25° above the centre line. Rotating the horn expands this to 100° at 50° below the centre line, such that coverage narrows.

In stage monitor mode, a PS R2 Series loudspeaker yields 100° horizontal coverage at 30° above the centre line, narrowing to 50° horizontal coverage at 25° below the centre line for use when the performers are further away.

A sticker on the wide dispersion side of the horn indicates the correct orientation for FOH and wedge monitoring applications. The arrow on the sticker indicates the ‘wide side’ of PS horn dispersion. Users simply need to position the arrow such that it points in the direction requiring widest coverage, and away from the direction requiring narrowest coverage.

A better

InvestmentPS Series loudspeakers have a hard-earned reputation for performance and reliability, with countless examples performing night-in, night-out, for more than a decade, without a single problem. Built in NEXO’s new, state-of-the-art production facility in France and engineered from the outset for a long, trouble-free life, the new PS R2 Series is set to enhance this reputation yet further through a combination of even more exacting manufacturing standards and advanced driver protection technology.

The versatility of PS R2 Series loudspeakers is enhanced yet further by a full range of rigging and flying hardware (see pages 16/17) – the development of which benefits from NEXO’s 30 years of experience in touring sound systems. And system installers will discover a similarly comprehensive range of mountings for permanent installation.

NEXO DTDAMP and DTD Controllers provide a powerful, compact and easy to configure power solution for PS-R2 systems in fixed and mobile applications.

LS400 Sub-Bass Key Features

The PS8 features advanced NEXO designed low magnetic emission Neodymium drivers, making the PS8 extremely light and compact while usable next to magnetically-sensitive professional video or computer equipment. The dispersion, architecture and weight balance are designed to provide uncompromised PA and stage monitor performance from a single speaker, and background and foreground music playback applications are equally well-served.

Like the new PS10-R2 and PS15-R2, this flexibility is realized by a proprietary constant directivity asymmetrical dispersion horn, easily configurable (by users) in four positions by 90° rotations. Coupled with the horn’s unique progressive horizontal (50° to 100°) and vertical (55°) dispersion, the most suitable pattern can be selected for vertical or horizontal PA usage or wedge monitoring. The PS8’s 2-way passive 8Ω design employs a single amplifier channel to deliver bi-amped performance, reducing system cost, size and complexity, and a new grille design increases durability while fully accommodating use as a wedge.

All PS R2 Series speakers ship with 35mm/1 3/8” pole mounts on the bottom of the cabinets for positioning on a general purpose speaker stand or mast inserted in top-fitted stand adapters on the sub-bass cabinets, while the PS10-R2 and PS15-R2 both feature steel anchor plates on the top for direct mounting onto a range of hanging and flying accessories (an adaptor plate is available for the PS8).

For outdoor installations, IP boxes are available giving full compliance with IP54 rating for protection from the harmful ingress of water.

NEXO PS R2 Series Systems

DTDAMP and DTD Controller

NXAMP

Two ultra-lightweight, high-power and compact DTDAMP 4-channel amplifers are perfectly matched to NEXO’s DTD Controller to create the perfect power solution for PS-R2 systems.

Choose the 4 x 700 Watt or 4 x 1300 Watt (4Ohms) DTDAMP, then the Touring or Installation version of the DTD Controller. Then simply select the PS-R2 cabinets on the DTD Controller and no further adjustments are required – perfect for quick set-up and dry-hire.

The DTDAMP offers extensive protection including mains over / under voltage, over voltage or DC output on each channel, current and voltage peak limiters, short circuit protection and low-noise, variable-speed cooling.

Also compatible with other amplifers, the DTD Controller is available in Touring version (with analogue input and output connectors on the front panel) and Install version (with all connectors on the back panel except USB for set-up from a Mac/PC or Android (with OTP support) device).

Full details of NEXO DTDAMP and DTD Controller are available to download from nexo-sa.com

For the ultimate power solution, NEXO NXAMP 4x1 and 4x4 Powered TDControllers integrate loudspeaker and amplifier control into a single device to provide PS-R2 series users with a flexible, high-output amplification solution, with instant access to a large library of presets, including Monitor or Front of house, crossover frequency selection presets (PS10-R2/PS-15R2). Alongside all the control parameters necessary to optimise loudspeaker performance, the NXAMPs also enable the user to manage the voltage/current/sense lines from the output, protecting both the amplifier and its power supply in real time.

Two 4-channel models with output capacities of 4x1300W under 2Ω (4x1) and 4x4000W under 2Ω (4x4) establish the NXAMP 4x1 as one of the most versatile amplifiers in the business, and the NXAMP 4x4 as one of the most powerful amplifiers ever produced.
